Most policy search algorithms require thousands of training episodes to find an effective policy, which is often infeasible with a physical robot. This survey article focuses on the extreme other end of the spectrum: how can a robot adapt…

In order for autonomous robots to be able to support people's well-being in homes and everyday environments, new interactive capabilities will be required, as exemplified by the soft design used for Disney's recent robot character Baymax in…

The value of neuromorphic computers depends crucially on our ability to program them for relevant tasks. Currently, neuromorphic computers are mostly limited to machine learning methods adapted from deep learning. However, neuromorphic…

Autonomous service robots require computational frameworks that allow them to generalize knowledge to new situations in a manner that models uncertainty while scaling to real-world problem sizes. The Robot Common Sense Embedding (RoboCSE)…

A prototype of modular networked robot for autonomous monitoring works with full control over web through wireless connection has been developed. The robot is equipped with a particular set of built-in analyzing tools and appropriate…

Human-robot interactions can change significantly depending on how autonomous humans perceive a robot to be. Yet, while previous work in the HRI community measured perceptions of human autonomy, there is little work on measuring perceptions…

Anticipating what might happen as a result of an action is an essential ability humans have in order to perform tasks effectively. On the other hand, robots capabilities in this regard are quite lacking. While machine learning is used to…
